A professor of fisheries and aquaculture from the University of Rhode Island and a team of graduate students have developed transgenic fish - trout in particular - that have 'enhanced' muscle mass. They "spent 500 hours injecting 20,000 rainbow trout eggs with various DNA types designed to inhibit myostatin. Of the eggs that hatched, 300 carried the gene that led to increased muscle growth. After two years, most exhibited a “six-pack ab” effect, even though fish lack standard abdominal muscles. They also have increased musculature throughout, including a prominent dorsal hump that made them look like they had muscular shoulders."
